Guramba fleet version

Just a quick question: Is the Guramba the only T5(U) ship in the game without a fleet version, or did I miss something?
I'm still flying one, but it would be a shame if there was an pgrade available that I'm not aware of.

So, I dunno if you can upgrade it or not (haven't upgraded mine since I only use it rarely and have other ships for other characters), but there is for sure no fleet version.
The Hegh'ta BOP has no C-Store or Fleet version.
The Marauder FDC and Guramba Siege Destroyer is at the C-Store but has no Fleet version.
The Negh'Var never got a C-Store version until very recently at T6. So the Fleet T5 version costs 4 FSMs.
These Fleet T5 ships never had a C-Store version so they costed a full 4 FSMs:
Norgh BOP
Negh'Var Battlecruiser (only T6)
Hoh'Sus BOP
Somraw Raptor
Qin Raptor
K'T'Inga Battlecruiser
Kamarag Battlecruiser
Vor'Cha Battlecruiser
Scourge Destroyer
Corsair FDC
Vo'Quv Carrier
Which is pretty much most of our endgame ships.
But still, a little bit unfair considering the galaxy dreadnought got a regular fleet version.
The Marauder upgrade is the Corsair. Which has a Fleet version.
The Fleet version of the Corsair is upgradable to T5-U. The regular version is not. All ships that cost Zen are upgradable.
Non upgradable.
Mirror vessels
Ships that cost only Dilithium
Token ships from leveling.
Nope, those are two different ships. Corsair is T4, Maruader is T5.
It's like saying the Vor'cha is an upgrade to the Negh'var.:)
It's a different layout...it's not the upgrade - it's a different ship. There's the Fleet non-Fleet Corsair and the Fleet Corsair.
Guramba
Marauder
D'Kyr
Are the three C-Store boats without a Fleet variant.
The Corsair is NOT a Marauder FDC. Can you use the Marauder skin on the Corsair? They're both Orion-fashioned FDCs but they are 2 different ships entirely. If you own the Marauder FDC like I do, the Corsair is still going to cost you 4 damn FSMs.
Still think it's twisted what they did there with the Dacoit, Corsair, Marauder, (fleet) Corsair, and Fleet Corsair.

Everything showing that progression...
Dacoit -> Corsair? +Cmdr Eng & +Lt Eng
Corsair -> Marauder/(fleet) Corsair? +LCdr Eng
Fleet Corsair? Lolwut?
They could have done (fleet) Dacoit Retrofit and Feet Dacoit Retrofit using that Sci'ish layout of the Fleet Corsair, cause that would be a potential path from the T3 Dacoit.
Meh, old wounds...old discussions...
...as for the Guramba, if they decide to do a Fed Destroyer that's better than the Guramba, they might do a T6 version of it, eh?
Yes. the regular corsair is t4. The fleet version is t5.
corsair FDC costs 200,000 fleet creds. Means non-upgradable.
Fleet corsair, 20,000 flett creds, but costs the flet ship tokens. There for making it upgradable.
Let me grab the list of upgradable ships I found. Whil ei try to get my launcher to progress pass loading and actually let me play.

Go have a look and see what I mean.
They had no idea what they were doing for the KDF when they implemented the Fleet Starbase/Ship System. I felt between the Fed & KDF selections, there were far more useful Fed ones for different styles of play. And most of them you could get with 1 FSM. Not so with the KDF. Almost our entire T5 Fleet selection costs 4 damn FSMs.
The Orion progression is so ****ed up beyond reason. Worse than the KDF T5 Fleet Destroyers and Raptors (and those did horribly, almost nobody bought them when we were facing 5 TAC Defiants and Prometheus). It truly deserves a Picard Double Facepalm. I would have preferred if the Orion FDCs were along these lines:
- Dacoit - ENG/TAC FDC
- Marauder - Heavy ENG FDC
- Corsair - ENG/SCI FDC
Well damn, that was simple, wasn't it? If only Cryptic actually had someone play the KDF and knew a thing or two about the faction.
And the Orion, Gorn, and Nausicaan ships will probably never see the light of T6.
Sort of like I have going in the my Syndicate Science ship thread? check it out. The idea has grown. Could use all the help we can get on it. We may never see any of it in game. But it does show the devs what we're actually looking for in ships if nothing else.
Yeah...owned the Guramba for a long time...definitely before LoR...makes me sad that there never was a fleet version and likely is never to be one...
But hey they love Feds! :rolleyes:
Its stupid...I mean they don't even need to make a new skin for it (Since they didn't make a new skin for any of the Non-Klingon ships.)
